Amazon Relational Database Service (RDS) Reviews & Product Details - Page 16

Majorly it is self managed services which really awesome.. me as DevOps engineer need not worried about it's up time and availability.

And other one upgrading the db version is really quite and really smooth going. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Just thing is backward compatibility. If that was there it would be really per

And one more thing I noticed on upgrade major version on MySQL that is ..

Characters set encoding

Basically it When you upgrad MySQL version the character set server value is set to default which will be utf8mb4

Issues hear is my database was using latine1 character but when I upgrade my db I got into conflict on latine1 and utf8mb4

If that issue is resolved...then I totally recommend every one to use RDS service Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

First of all i would like to say RDS very much easy to set-up and operate it and we can also use this as an vertical scaling of our instances, it is also give the hasel free experience to me with user-friendly interface for the database solutions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I have noticed one thing that is has limited controls over the server configurations. Customized options are also restricted due to this limitations against the convenience and management benefits RDS provides. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

it's availability, auto scalling fetures. I also like that it has almost all major database engine Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

replication lag when creating read replica. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

A feature which i think differentiates Amazon RDS from it's competitors is the Multi-AZ Deployment which ensures high availability and data durability by automated replication of database instances across multiple availability zones within an AWS region. Also automatic failovers, backups and snapshots as well as a simplified disaster recovery ensures minimal downtime and high availability, especially in a financial environment where I am from, it is critical.

Limited customization and control over the database environment is a deterrence. There's restricted access to underlying OS and DB configs where this restriction is an issue when trying to conduct testing of proof of concepts or use cases that require fine tuning configs.

It is very easy to scale up and scale down dynamically as the load on the database changes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It comes with a higher cost of management as compared to hosting a database yourself, and RDS is connected deeply with other aws technology. Down the line it makes it difficult to change cloud providers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like the simple dashboard and easy to access interface which anyone having some knowledge can work with. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The only downside is the money although it is less than any other but sometimes my manager tells me it's exceeding our expectations considering our large data. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
